Fix coccicheck warning which recommends to
use memdup_user() instead of reimplementing its
code.

This patch fixes below coccicheck warnings:

drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/hostap_ioctl.c:3044:9-16: WARNING
opportunity for memdup_user
drivers/net/wireless/intersil/hostap/hostap_ioctl.c:3806:9-16: WARNING
opportunity for memdup_user
